Netflix phenomenon
I watch Netflix on a win10 laptop and use Firefox as my browser for that. Each time a Netflix program gets to roughly 5 min remaining my video freezes but sound continues. Usually the video recovers on its own, other times going back a few secs is required.
Googling the issue reveals a few people with the same issue but no solutions. Anyone else had this issue and have a remedy? Netflix suggest updating windows and video driver but they're both current.

Re: Netflix phenomenon
just get the netflix win10 app. it works much better as it does not require a browser get it here if there is a popup asking you to sign in just cancel it and your download will start. there is no need to have a microsoft account.

Re: Netflix phenomenon
Agreed, the Netflix app actually works quite well, also while Firefox was long the flavour of the month, I'v been drawn more and more to Vivaldi as a browser and duckduckgo as a search engine these days.
